Hindley: "I knew the climb was brutal, it was an epic stage"

Date:

Australian Jai Hindley (Bora Hansgrohe), is happy after wearing the pink jersey on top of the Marmolada Passo Fedaia, on a well -calculated day by the “aussie” cyclist, who knows the differences can be made ” because the climb is brutal ”.

“I knew this was going to be the crucial stage of Giro and the ending was brutal, and I also knew that if I had feet I could make a difference. That’s what I did. It was an epic day and I’m ‘I’m happy in pink jersey, ”Hindley said of the dolomite finish

A triumph of patience, calculation and strategy that turned out to be perfect. In the absence of a trial at the time of Verona, Hindley was the winner of the Giro d’Italia. He will be able to defend his new reign with at least 1.25 minutes over Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz and 1.51 over Spanish Mikel Landa.

“I had booked myself for today, it was a matter of being patient and everything went perfectly. We had Lenny Kamna in front who was a great help when we caught him. I saw that Carapaz was in trouble and I said, ‘This is in me. ‘ It’s been an epic stage, “explained the 26-year-old Perth cyclist.

Prior to Sunday’s time trial, Hindley did not dare give a prognosis after three weeks of accumulated fatigue, but made sure he “would die” for the pink jersey.
